MICRO-SIMULATION MODELLING FOR TRAFFIC SAFETY: A REVIEW AND POTENTIAL APPLICATION TO HETEROGENEOUS TRAFFIC ENVIRONMENT

Micro-simulation modelling for traffic safety: A review and potential application to heterogeneous traffic environment

This paper critically reviews micro-simulation modelling applications for traffic safety evaluation with respect to the use of different simulation tools, the application of surrogate safety indicators under different aspects of road environments and crash considerations.General input variables used to develop the models; key parameters for crash p

Early Forest Fire Detection Using Low Energy Hydrogen Sensors

The North-east German Lowlands is a region with one of the highest forest fire risks in Europe.In order to keep damage levels as low as possible, it is important to have an effective early warning system.Such a system is being developed on the basis of a hydrogen sensor, which makes it possible to detect a smouldering forest fire before the develop
